St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Primary School, A Voluntary Catholic Academy
Stockton-on-Tees, TS17 6NE · Stockton-on-Tees · primary school
8th of 54 primary schools in Stockton-on-Tees we can score, 60 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 8.1/10 against 2,281 of them, against 6.7/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 72.0 · 71 | 40% | 2.83 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 25% | 1.53 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 72.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 9.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.7 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in May 2023.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including Drawing, Gardening, Maths in Motion, Lego, Art and Design, Clever Construction, and Let’s Play a Game. Sports options cover Multi Sports, Football, Dodgeball, Basketball, Ally Pally Darts, Netball, Volleyball, and Cricket, alongside a Choir. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 415 pupils in a building with 280 places, meaning it is over capacity by 135. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 135 more pupils than its stated capacity? What specific support is available for the 9.0% of pupils who reached the higher standard? How does the breakfast club operate given the current pupil numbers?
